Nope it is backwater from the Yazoo and Mississippi River.

How far are you from the Mississippi?

How far are you from the Mississippi?

About 45 miles.

I
I grew up at the mouth of the White and Arkansas area. Lots of back water for sure.

WOW!

 

[Mopower58]

The Delta in Mississippi is very flat and great for crops but is low and is subject to flooding more than the rest of the state. It runs right up to the Mississippi River.

View attachment 116520 View attachment 116519 View attachment 116518 Mississippi has over 500,000 acres underwater from flooding. National news doesn't report it.

That’s crazy. They’ve been showing the flooding up north but nothing south for a while. Everything good with you and your family ? I’ll be watching tonight.
That will get the gators moving. Scary.
Thanks Mopower.

@Smitty335, I was talking to a young guy today, from Bell, got me to switch carriers. He said he had some Polaris XR something 1000. Crazy fast he said. Anyway, he said last year he was out , screwing around, and he flipped it, he said nothing on the bike, but he didn’t have his seat belt on, and went through the half windshield. Broke his leg, arm, nerve damage in his neck and back that made him blind in one eye and barely see out the other. He said it took a bit but he’s fine now. Made me think of Andy.

We don’t have a lot of black water, but we do have black mud. And man is that stuff messy. No problem telling who was playing in it.

@Russ989 , did you see that young guy on Bad Chad Customs, blow a plexiglass bubble last night. Hi brain works. Haha. Out of two pieces of plywood and a sheet of plexi, and air. Crazy.

That was pretty neat, I actually saw that a couple weeks ago.

Haha. That figures, filmed here, and we see it last.
I never would have thought that would have worked. The car was unreal, considering it started as a station wagon. Next week he builds a car for a golf tournament to be given away for a hole in one. Did you see that one. Haha.
Tonight is the first shows of Last Stop Garage. If you and your kids want a laugh. Newfoundland red necks at their best. It makes me laugh.

Yes, thanks for asking. We are about 45 miles from the Mississippi River and the Yazoo river kinda runs parallel to the Mississippi and dumps into the Mississippi at Vicksburg. We are southeast of that.

 

[Mopower58]

Not sure about the gators but they say it has killed a lot of wildlife.

That’s good Mopower. Couldn’t imagine starting over at our age. We’re pretty good in Nova Scotia, not much flat ground, but New Brunswick, 70Bones country, gets hammered every year there is a lot of snow up north.
So, isn’t the Mississippi River going to get even higher when everything melts up north too. Wow. That’s effecting a lot of people. Fingers crossed for you.

Probably not good for the ground animals. The young deer would be having a ruff time too.

Yes as the snow melts the Mississipppi is subject to rise. One good thing is we have had no rain for almost a week and don't expect a lot coming up. Thanks for the thoughts but the Mississippi will not rise enough to affect us. That is what God told Noah and I believe him!

Several deer have drowned as have other ground animals.
